We don't have events based on poster, so we don't know whether or not it's been loaded. Poster is meant for the video implementation. We use other events to know if video is playing.
So as a coder, I can just do an attribute check to see if poster exists, then load it into an image tag. It's a normal part of working with Canvas. We always follow onload events.
